Analysis of Complex Dataset Obtained from Simulator to Examine the Effects of Wireless Telephone Use on Driving Performance

tatistical models to examine response spacing of drivers under effects of wireless telephone use in the proximity to an intersection were found. The method is a forward stepwise regression that allows knowing the most influential predictors. For determine the worst driving performance on distracted drivers in front to a traffic signal that can change from green to yellow and then to red, a probability study of collision risk and change in velocity was performed. To achieve these goals, a dataset of young, middle-aged and older participants, which were exposed to different call condition into a driving simulator, was used
